Etrade has $10 trades with $50k balance – $20 trades otherwise.

Questrade has a $1k minimum balance and $5 trades for everyone and no monthly minimum (IB charges $10/month minimum).

If I was a frequent trader than IB might be the best bet because they have $1 trades ($10 min/month) – however they don’t offer rrsp accounts.

FB, I have an article on my site that compares a lot of the discount brokerages in Canada. Hey Mike, thanks for the mention.

I set up an account with NBC a while ago and never changed because I'm lazy... this laziness is starting to cost me a lot! ($29 a trade versus $5....hum...I don't feel too bright right now!). What do you think about E-trade? Man, I think I should change my account. I set up an account with NBC a while ago and never changed because I’m lazy… this laziness is starting to cost me a lot!

I'll publish it sometime this week. For now, I am not moving from Questrade because this issue was resolved. Still, since I have our RRSP accounts with TDW, having the ability to contribute in-kind or swap assets between RRSP and investment accounts is a big advantage for consolidating accounts.
